During a tough summer in college, I bought my first game - a copy of BW - soon after purchasing my first computer. I really enjoyed the campaign but had no idea multiplayer existed. I didn't think more of it until grad school, when I saw that SC2 had come out and bought it because I was miserable and needed an escape. This time, though, I realized there was a multiplayer mode. It took a whole week to get the courage to hit that Find Match button. YES! I lost two games in a row but realized that this was the best thing EVER! Multiplayer SC2 was incredibly intense and blocked my misery completely. My opponents pulled the craziest stuff that I could never predict. I was hooked. Soon after, I learned about the pro scene. It was deeply bizarre to me at first - but I quickly grew to love it. As a grad student, I had research interests that weren't shared by the other students in my lab. So instead, I joined an SC2 clan to fulfill my need to talk with people about things I loved. Playing SC2 and doing leadership stuff in my clan helped me survive the rest of my graduate degree. It was a rough time for me and I struggled with mental illness, but it meant a lot to me to have practice to attend, to play an immersive game, and to get excited about casual and professional matches with friends (and MIND TIME!!). SC2 gave me something to live for at a time when I felt like I was going nowhere. Sadly, eventually the clan died, but that's OK. SC2 is still keeping me sane, even if I had to stop playing it because it was making me rage. I have a good job now but sometimes it's boring. I survive on a steady diet of GSL with occasional WCS and other tournaments - I'd be extremely anxious at work if I didn't listen to Tastless and Artosis joke around and make my day happy. Outside of work I sometimes put a tournament on in the background while I do a project, or relax on the couch watching one late at night. While I'm fairly disconnected from the community due to avoiding spoilers (I usually watch vods days or weeks late), Starcraft is still so important for me. To me it is the best game. Nothing comes close. Nothing is so difficult, so varied, so beautiful. No other game makes me want to jump in the air for excitement. Long Live StarCraft! + Show Spoiler + Also, serious love for GOM. They get a lot of hate, but for me the subscription to GSL is completely worth it. Tastless and Artosis are my favorite casting duo (2nd favorite: Bitterdam - RIP). I love their production style and values. GSL is my favorite tournament, and I worry with all the hate I see that it won't be around in the future. I will continue to enjoy it while I can! | ||
